A player can only pot and cover the Queen if at least one of their Carrom men has been already potted. If the Queen is potted before being allowed to, the Queen is replaced at the centre of the board when the turn ends. Potting the Queen and one of their Carrom men simultaneously counts as a player covering the Queen and points are awarded. If a player pots the Queen but is unable to cover it, the Queen is replaced to the centre circle by the opponent.

While taking a stroke, the Striker must touch both the Base Lines. If the stroke is made from the Base Circle, the Striker must cover the Base Circle fully, but should not touch the arrow.
